Blood, Sweat and Tears... all in one day

For a four day work week, I am really tired. Its been a busy few days but I'm definitely feeling good about it.

After two days of Nurse Mommy, the little one was definitely feeling better. I bundled them both up and headed to NYSC. While they watched SpongeBob with a babysitter (I usually do not let my kids watch Spongebob. It's like the kid version of Jersey Shore sucking out brain cells.), I ran 5 miles on an incline of 2. To top it off, I did it in just over 51 minutes.  Go me!
The proof is in the pic

On Monday I celebrated MLK day with a spin class. When my friend and I walked in, it was chaos. They had lost the waiting list and with only 23 bikes on a holiday, they wanted to make sure everyone who registered got a bike. Guess what though, at 5 minutes before the class starts if you aren't there, your seat is up for grabs. It's like the college rule about if the teacher is 15 minutes late you can leave. (is that even a policy?). Regardless I got a bike and I spun! :) I'm definitely hooked on spinning. I want to get a seat cover but there are so many options. Can anyone suggest a good one?

Yesterday was a odd day.  I literally gave my blood, sweat and tears... but not in that order.  I started with an 7 a.m. TRX class with Ray at Pedal NYC.  I was supposed to be training with Toni and the Hot Mamas, but I was the only mama who made it.  Extra attention yesterday means more ouchie today.  But as always well worth it!  So sweat was given before 8 a.m.  Buckets full!  (Yep, I'm sexy like that.)
Killer TRX workout!


I also gave blood at work at 10 a.m.  I given blood at least 4 times a year.  Everyone who can, should.  It's an hour of your life to help someone else.  Easy, done!

Unfortunately, the tears came due to a tragedy in the family of a co-worker.  It really makes to realize that every day is a gift.  After a work function at 230 Fifth (great spot), I went home and kissed my already sleeping kids.

Delicious food!  The sliders are amazing as is the very pink  meat!  YUM!
My son also gave a tooth yesterday!  His first tooth fell out!

What is the going rate for the tooth fairy nowadays?
